source for dtvcontrol ???

Hi Guys,

with all this FREE time...I've been tinkering with an OLD machine running an older sagetv version.

I'm trying to use EXEtuner.dll which I have..but I need the dtvcmd.exe and the background task (which I assume is dtvcontrol)? dtvcontrol.com is long gone.

Anyone know a source or have a copy I can install to play around with??

Looking to hook it into the old TIVAX-STB-T8 box at 115,200 baud.

Thanks all. BE safe!

PS. After many more searches....I think I dont need DTVcontrol...just SOME program that will send the data to com2

ANyone know if I can just write a .bat file....with a mode cmd to set the baud rate and just echo %channel% > com2

Could it really be that simple??
